While the Hollywood stars were walking the red carpet in Hollywood, the one fabric anyone was interested in within the poker world was the general table felt on the PokerStars Sunday majors. This week's Sunday Warm-Up had 4,980 players, with a prize pool of $996,000. It was a quick and furious final table, with a six-way deal after a racecar start, but if everything was settled and the last cards were dealt, Ramux walked away with the win and the $139,163.73 first place prize money. Not just did he win the event, he held the chip lead when the deal was made, so he ended up with the lion's share of the money as well!The final table kicked off within the most tumultuous action I've ever seen, with an elimination on all of the first three hands! At the first actual hand of the overall table, the short-stacked Shaaarrrp moved all in from early position with A♠-Q♣. Juda10 moved all in excessive to isolate, and when the remainder of the table folded, juda10 showed 8♣-8♥ for the slight edge within the race. A slight edge was all juda10 needed, because the board came down K♠-5♦-J♥-4♣-9♦, and Shaaarrrp was done in 9th place ($7,968).

Before the remainder of the table could catch their breath, all of the chips were within the middle again as L C P open-shoved with K♦-Q♦. His only opponent was Ansgar2000, holding the charmed hand du jour - pocket eights. Ansgar's 8♣-8♦ was ok to send another competitor to the rail, however, because the board ran out 6♥-9♠-5♠-J♠-3♦. After two hands, and two coin flips, there have been two fewer players on the table as LCP collected $12,450 for 8th place.

But the push wasn't over yet, as Ramux and gaffel tangled in a single last huge pot to kick off the overall table. Ramux opened for a raise with K♥-Q♥, and made the decision when gaffel moved all in excessive with A♣-J♠. The flop brought an enormous draw to Ramux, because it came down 3♥-3♠-7♥, giving Ramux the flush draw to compliment his live cards. The flush hit the activate the shape of the T♥, leaving gaffel drawing dead. The river was the irrelevant J♣, and gaffel headed to bed with an additional $22,410 for 7th place in his bankroll.

With the breathtaking pace of the primary few eliminations, the remainder six players decided to speak a few deal. The huge chip lead the Ramux had accumulated made the deal process difficult, but after some lengthy debate, a deal was reached that left $10,000 for the winner and locked up comfortable guarantees for everyone.

The deal locked up $129,163.73 for chip leader Ramux, while the second-place Ansgar2000 picked up $86,163.71. Hismoon nabbed $77,163.71 for his third-place stack, Method999 locked in $68,163.71, juda10 took down a guaranteed $66,163.71 and Feez0 grabbed $48,163.71 for his 6th-place stack. That left $10,000 for the eventual winner of the tournament, and play resumed.

After some jockeying for position on the final table and some double-ups, the primary big confrontation sent two players to the rail directly. Feez0 found himself at the extreme short stack and put his previous couple of chips in the course of the table because the big blind. Method999 raised from the button, and Ramux made the decision from the small blind. The flop came down 9♦-K♠-7♥, and the remainder of the chips went within the middle. Feez0 showed Q♠-4♠, Method999 opened K♥-6♦, and Ramux held the lead with K♣-T♦. The K♦ at the turn did nothing to switch that, and when the river brought the T♠, it was everywhere for Feez0 and Method999.

Ansgar2000 was the following to fall, busting in 4th place by the hands of juda10. Action folded around to juda, who moved all in preflop with 6♥-9♥. Ansgar thought for a moment but finally called with A♣-8♣. Juda10 picked up a couple of nines on a flop of T♥-K♠-9♣, and that was enough to carry up and send Ansgar packing because the turn and river came down 7♦-Q♦ and skinny the sector to three.

It took a short time to whittle it down, and there have been several double-throughs along heads-up play, but finally juda10's run on the final table came to an end. After Ramux folded from the button, juda10 moved all in from the small blind with A♣-6♣. Hismoon made the decision with A♦-9♣, and his lead extended with the flop of 4♦-A♠-9♠. Needing running sixes to stick alive, juda was drawing dead after the T♣ hit the turn. The river was a meaningless Q♦, and the tournament was heads up for $10,000.

Heads up play was an actual battle, with multiple lead change and double ups at the start was finally settled. But within the end, it came right down to who could catch cards when it counted most, and that was Ramux at the last hand. After crippling Hismoon, then doubling him up on back-to-back hands, all of the money went within the middle preflop once again, but this time Ramux had the best ammo - pocket aces. His A♣-A♦ was firmly within the driver's seat against Hismoon's K♣-J♥. The flop brought more suspense because it came down T♣-7♣-Q♠, giving Hismoon the up and down straight draw, however the 5♥ at the turn was no help. Ramux just had to fade an ace or nine at the river to win the tournament and the additional $10k, and when the river brought the Q♦, that's exactly what he did. Hismoon played an excellent final table, even taking on Ramux's seemingly insurmountable chip lead a few time, but in spite of everything he could only come away with second place.

Congrats to Ramux, who picked up $139,163.73 when all was said and done, and congratulations to boot to all our final table players!
